Undo a change that didn’t work out, for one screen or the whole canvas. Figr saves versions as you work, on two levels. Each artifact, like a screen, prototype or doc, has its own versions. The canvas also keeps a timeline of every change made across the project in Activity. Go back one artifact when a single change goes wrong, or go back the whole canvas when you want to return to an earlier point in the project.

​
Go back one artifact

Use this when one screen, prototype or doc has gone in the wrong direction and the rest of the canvas is fine.
1

Open version history

Double-click a screen or prototype to open full screen, then open its version history.

Restore the one you want

Choose Restore on the version you want to go back to. It becomes the current version.

4

Keep going

Continue editing by hand or in chat. Later changes are saved as new versions, so you can always go back again.

​
Go back the whole canvas

Use this when you want to return the whole project to an earlier point, for example before a round of changes across several screens.
1

Open Activity

Open Activity to see every change made in the project. Changes are grouped by day and by the prompt that made them.

2

Find the point you want

Each entry shows what changed and when, so you can find the moment before things went wrong.
3

Restore it

Click Restore this version. The whole canvas returns to how it was at that point.

Not sure you want to lose the current version? Duplicate the chat and canvas first, then restore in the copy.

​
Find anything with Layers

Layers lists everything on the canvas: prototypes, notes, screenshots, flows and sections. Use it to find an item or move around a crowded canvas.
